According to The Associated Press:

DUBLIN, California –  MC Hammer suggests  he was a victim of racial profiling when he was stopped and arrested by police  in the Northern California city of Dublin.

The `90s rap star tweeted on Saturday that an officer approached him in his  car and asked "Are you on parole or probation?"

He says that as he handed over his ID, the officer reached inside the car and  tried to pull him out.

Dublin police Lt. Herb Walters told the Oakland Tribune that Hammer, who was born Stanley Burrell, was arrested  Thursday for investigation of obstructing an officer in the performance of their  duties and resisting an officer.

He declined to comment to KTVU about Hammer's version of the arrest.

Hammer tweeted that he wasn't bitter and considered what happened "a  teachable moment."

LL's Comment: Well, Whoever said that MC Hammer "couldn't get arrested these days" is WRONG because He Got Arrested!.....:-)
